Rolf of Ledeborg

Rolf of Ledeborg (862-885) was King of Ledeborg from 884 to 885, succeeding Guttron.

Biography
Rolf was born in Denmark in 862, and he was possibly the son of Osbeorn and the younger brother of Guttron. He accompanied his family to England amid the Viking invasions of England, and he became a prince of Ledeborg when his father conquered Leicester and declared himself King. In 885, following the deaths of his father and brother in battle with the Anglo-Saxons, Rolf became the new King. He and his 22 followers - the remnants of his brother's army (which had been destroyed at the Battle of Broughton) - caused mischief in the Cambridgeshire countryside, sacking Huntingdon before being pursued and slain by King Alfred the Great's army.
